Actor Suriya's 'Si3' released on February 9 generated positive word of mouth from the predominant section of audience and the film is said to be a fitting addition to the blockbuster 'Singam' franchise.

Now lets see how these two films have competed with each other in the Chennai box office.

'Si3' has collected over Rs.2.4 crores in Chennai Box office alone in its opening weekend which had four days. With 465 shows across 23 screens in the Metro city, the Hari directorial has collected Rs.2,42,640 with a tremendous 95% occupancy. Trade calls it as an excellent opening and this is the biggest ever for Suriya.

We can be assured that 'Si3' will turn out to be one of the memorable blockbusters in Suriya's career like 'Singam' in 2010 and 'Singam 2' in 2013.
